Question 61 Mark
Define the term amplitude.
What do you understand by amplitude of simple pendulum?
Answer
Amplitude: The maximum displacement of the bob from its mean position on either side is called the amplitude of oscillation. It is measured in metres $(m).$
Amplitude $= AB$ or $AC.$ It is denoted by $‘a’.$
